Shakespeare Play Performance Program (strict attendance)
Join us for a fun and exciting program of rehearsing and performing a Shakespeare Play. In an effort to work on advanced material, we require no more than two absences the entire year. Tardiness is also taken into account. The more actors we have, the bigger the show we can do!
Our script is edited from the original text keeping the Elizabethan English. Through physical and theatrical exercises, students will learn how to create and develop a character, understand Shakespeare and use their voices and bodies to tell this great story. We’ll bring it all together as we prepare for live performance with stage combat! This class is a safe and supportive atmosphere where students are encouraged to make bold acting choices while learning teamwork and gaining confidence. All students will get a speaking role involving lines that will need to be memorized on schedule. Roles range in size (small, medium and large) and will be cast in consideration of class size, production needs and student preference. In the final weeks, we meet twice a week and the performance day requires an additional day time tech rehearsal usually running 3 hours. Performance day, venue and schedule: TBA. Please keep March 12-19 open for possible show day.
Classes meet all Fridays except November 29 and December 27. We WILL meet on Dec 20 and Jan 3. We will be adding one or two additional Wednesdays in the final weeks, meeting at the same location and same time.
